Ghetto-Posh

While walking around downtown Seattle, some friend and I saw a few window displays that could only be described as ghetto but pricey! Thus, I coined the term "ghetto-posh." Not quite classy, but not cheap or skanky either...

Ghetto-Posh: an item, event, person, or anything that is very pricey to purchase or put on, but is styled to be dirty, worn, trashy, or cheap.

cambridge posh twats

cambridge university has a particular slant on a posh twat. The graduates of cambridge tend to be in love with their own success and are secretly jealous of anyone even vaguely more successful than them. For example any other cambridge graduate. The most successful moment for these people was getting into the college, graduating and then spending the rest of their lives "I went to cambridge", getting married in cambridge and marrying other cambridge graduates and then desperately spending their lives clawing onto their pocket of success and having to fund their superiority and status anxiety.
cambridge posh twats "I can't go to my cambridge reunion because I haven't achieved anything and no, a husband, children, successful career and my own home do not count as any palpable success, please don't call me a cambridge posh twat you chav".
